Where is

"....around here..." for you?

Jamat

Ok not sure if anybody would be interested but its been used on other forums and I've found a few groups in my area that like the games I like So I thought I'd set up a thread that allowed people here to put out a bit about themselves and let other forum members see where people are. I've set out a ...

Hi Ken. Thanks for the reply. I've never GM'd a game using the D20 rules so have never had to deal withthe AO rules other than a player. I'm quite willing to give the rules a go before I have to look at house rules. My observations were due to a few games I've played and comments on different forums...

So will we be seeing suppliments dedicated to the differing political powers i.e. America, Germany etc.

If yes will they have some country specific classes?

Hi there. It might have been obvious from some of my early posts that I really love this game (though not had chance to play it yet) but I've never been a great fan of the rule of Attacks of Opportunity. On other forums and in reviews this rule seems to be questioned most often. It has even been sta...

Now that sounds really warped...... WHEN DO WE GET IT....WHEN.

Jamat

Thanks Ken

That explains it clearly. I can now go off and design my character with a gaol in mind

I've just noticed that Goodman Games do a range of D&D figures what's the likely hood of there ever being a boxed set of Etherscope player characters being produced?

Just an off the cuff idea.

Jamat

Well It's here....I have it......and it looks ok........No it doesn't it looks absolutely fantastic. It puts the punk into cyberpunk but keeps the victorian feel that I so love about this game. Where do I start, well first I haven't read it, just flicked through but still the new talents and feats a...

For all you British people out there Esdevium games are listing Upload as being on their release schedule for next week.

So come on people contact your game shops today and get them ordered.

I want to create a character who's profession is that of an undertaker. What would be the best class to use? I was going to take Savant. Any other suggestions appreciated. If I get a chance this weekend I'll try statting him up and post it here for all to see. Actually thinking about it I may make h...

Jamat

That's right I'm interested in what characters people are playing (I'm not at the moment trying to get my group interested).

Jamat

Yes that's right kiddies The Great Metropolis has arrived in London (well at Playing games) and I have a copy.

It looks great from the quick flick through I had at lunch time can't wait to get onthe train home to have a good read.

Jamat

Is this real or an April fools wind up ?


Just wondering considering the post date.

Jamat

Hi Guys,

Any release date for this product yet?

Jamat

P.S. can't wait till next week to get my sweaty mits on The Great Metropolis.

Hi all, Has anyone out there read the following book: Lord Darcy books by Randall Garrett I've read it a couple of times over the years and although there is magic instead of the Etherscope I think it gives a good feel to how an Etherscope adventure could be run. I was also wondering if anyone had b...

I agree it probably would translate into Savage world with little difficulty. BUT then why would you it's a great game as it is and one of the better uses of the OGL I've seen in a while (though the best still has to be Mutants and Masterminds) I say leave it as it is and enjoy it the way it was mea...

I really hate it when game companies tease me in this way!!!!!

Jamat

Glad you feel the same way. I also belive roleplaying is better than roll playing and playing the social ascpect of this game is as important as any combat or other action. Especially with the social situation and value that was Victorian England. I think in this situation humans come into their own...

Ben,

Will there be more character classes in The Great Metropolis to represent these poeple. I'd love to see a gunslinger class (perhaps in an American suppliment )

Jamat

I would say that in the real world "well Etherscope world" you would only get the monsters stated in the rules.

Once jacked in who's to say you couldn't meet a dragon or a werewolf as the only limit once you're jacked in is your imagination.

Jamat.

Hi there, I am looking for some appropriate figures to use in my game and was wondering if anyone out there knows of a company (s) that produce such items. So far Ive found the following: http://www.copplestonecastings.co.uk/ http://www.wargamesfoundry.com/main.asp Do you know of any others. Jamat

Thanks for the heads up.

I will be waiting with baited breath for "Upload: Etherpunk", but first I need to get my hands on The Great Metropolis.

Keep up the great work

Jamat
